It is really praiseworthy that you are managing study along with working. I have the following Tips which I used in my PCC and may be helpful to you in your studies:
INFO. TECH AND SM STUDY:
IN INFO. TECH. AND SM, USE ONLY PADHUKA’S BOOK. NO OTHER THINGS. ALWAYS THEY ASK 10 MARK QUESTION OF FLOWCHART OR/AND DECISION TABLE. MAKE A SEPARATE NOTE FOR THESE TWO CHAPTERS. PRACTISE ONLY 5 FLOWCHARTS DAILY. FIRST READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL FLOWCHARTS FROM MODULE AND PADHUKA. THEN DO THEM ALL YOURSELF. UNDERSTAND YOUR MISTAKES AND TRY TO RECTIFY THEM.
MAKE A VERY SMALL BOOK FOR ALL SHORT FORMS OF IT AND SM LONG QUESTIONS AND CRAM THEM ALL. READ ONLY THOSE SHORT FORMS ON THE DAY BE4 EXAM. PADHUKAS BOOK INCLUDES 100% COURSE. SO U NEED NOT TO OPEN MODULE FOR THEORY.
COST AND FM:
USE MODULES FOR COST AND FM. FINISH ALL CHAPTERS FROM MODULES FIRST, THEN SOLVE ALL CHAPTERS FROM PADHUKA BOOK. MAKE A SEPARATE BOOK FOR ALL FORMULAES OF COST AND FM TO READ IT ON THE DAY BE4 EXAM. MARK OUT DIFFERENT KINDS OF SOLVED SUMS FROM PADHUKA AND MODULE. AND JUST READ THE SUMS AND FORMULAES ON THE DAY BE4 EXAM. ALSO IN COST AND FM THEORY QUESTIONS ARE OF ABOUT 40 MARKS. MAKE A SEPARATE BOOK FOR SHORT FORMS OF THOSE THEORY QUESTIONS THAT WERE ASKED IN PAST EXAMS. PADHUKA’S BOOK WILL HELP U IN UNDERSTANDING THE WEIGHTAGE OF QUESTION AS IT CONTAINS THE YEARS IN WHICH THE QUESTION WAS ASKED IN CA EXAM.
INCOME TAX:
USE ONLY TAXMANN’S BOOK FOR INCOME TAX. READ ALL THEORY AND HIGHLIGHT MAIN POINTS TO REFER THEM ON THE DAY BE4 EXAMINATION. THE CHAPTER OF SERVICE TAX AND VAT IS OF 25 MARKS. SO DO NOT LEAVE ANYTHING FROM THOSE CHAPTERS AND MAKE A BOOK OF ALL THEORY SHORT FORMS OF SERVICE TAX AND VAT. ONLY TAXMANN IS ENOUGH FOR SECURING AS MANY MARKS AS U CAN.
STUDY BOOKS FOR THE FIRST GROUP OF IPCC IN MY OPINION ARE AS UNDER:
ACCOUNT:
PADHUKA'S REFERENCE BOOKS AND MODULES ARE ENOUGH FOR CLEARING ACCOUNT SUBJECT.
AUDIT:
PADHUKA' S BOOK IS TO THE POINT FOR AUDITING.
LAW, ETHICS AND COMMUNICATION:
PADHUKA' S BOOK IS TO THE POINT FOR LAW, ETHICS AND COMMUNICATION.
